Well I have found that using the "NEW" cloth diapers, are an awesome way to save money!!! In the long run at first. The diapers run a little high for when you are first purchasing them. I use Fuzzi Bunz brand. Fuzzibunz.com And I figured since I am SAHM and wash cloths just about every day anyway, might as well do cloth and save for the enviroment and save money not having to run to the store to get diapers, and the best thing of all is no diaper rash cream, these diapers prevent it totally. My son is now 4 weeks old, and I know he prefers his clothes over his disposables, he normally screams a whole lot in disp. I figured its a couple hundred dollars a year I'm saving, and maybe a few sq feet in a land fill.

I totally agree -- I used cloth diapers (most of the time) on my 2nd baby and it was nice not having to worry about "Do I need more diapers?" "Do I have a coupon?" "Am I going to run out of diapers before payday?"

It was a really smart financial decision, and I should mention, not really very time intensive at all. They didn't require a lot of work like back in mom's and grandma's generation -- these were just as easy as disposables, I just had an extra load of laundry to do each week, no big deal!

We use cloth diapers. In the beginning when they are really little I use the old fashioned prefolds and Bummis covers and as they get older I use all in one's, like the Fuzzi Bunz. I love it and have saved a lot of money.

We loved cloth diapers too. But I we used Kooshies all in one pull-ups - even when they were little because they were so easy to put on and stay on ... I'm going to look up the other ones thought, they sound great.
